Explain how the gas laws apply to the act of breathing. Describe the changes that occur in each step of the process in terms of

the pressure, volume, temperature, and moles of gas present for each step, identify which variables are constant, and which are changing name the gas law or gas laws that apply to the process create and solve a sample calculation using realistic values of pressure, temperature, amount of gas, and volume. Please HELP!

<span>When you in inhale, you move your diaphragm down increasing the volume of the cavity in your ribs (its called pleural cavity). This lowers the pressure inside your lungs. When the pressure in your lungs is less than the atmospheric pressure, air draws inwards. Ideal gas law: PV=nRT -> assume nRT are constant for our purposes. then we allow one system to be equal to the same system at different conditions, thus: P1V1=P2V2 (Boyles Law) assume P1=1 atm and V1=1 L (keeping the numbers simple to avoid confusion). when the V is increased (for example say doubled) V2=2 L, then: (1 atm)*(1 L)=P2*(2 L) -> P2=0.5 atm The pressure was decreased. Apply the same logic for exhalation.</span>

A force of 5N and a force of 8N act to the same point and are inclined at 45degree to each other. Find the magnitude and directi
Alex_Xolod [135]
  • Magnitude: 12.1 N.
  • Direction: 17.0° to the 8 N force.
<h3>Explanation</h3>

Refer to the diagram attached (created with GeoGebra). Consider the 5 N force in two directions: parallel to the 8 N force and normal to the 8 N force.

  • \displaystyle F_{\text{1, Parallel}} = F_1 \cdot \cos{45^\textdegree} = \dfrac{5\sqrt{2}}{2}\;\text{N}.
  • \displaystyle F_{\text{1, Normal}} = F_1 \cdot \sin{45^\textdegree} = \dfrac{5\sqrt{2}}{2}\;\text{N}.

The sum of forces on each direction will be the resultant force on that direction:

  • Resultant force parallel to the 8 N force: (8 + \dfrac{5\sqrt{2}}{2})\;\text{N}.
  • Resultant force normal to the 8 N force: \dfrac{5\sqrt{2}}{2}\;\text{N}.

Apply the Pythagorean Theorem to find the magnitude of the resultant force.

\displaystyle \Sigma F = \sqrt{{(8 + \dfrac{5\sqrt{2}}{2})}^2 + {(\dfrac{5\sqrt{2}}{2})}^2} = 12.1\;\text{N} (3 sig. fig.).

The size of the angle between the resultant force and the 8 N force can be found from the tangent value of the angle. Tangent of the angle:

\displaystyle \dfrac{\Sigma F_\text{Normal}}{\Sigma F_\text{Parallel}} = \dfrac{8 + \dfrac{5\sqrt{2}}{2}}{\dfrac{5\sqrt{2}}{2}} \approx 0.306491.

Find the size of the angle using inverse tangent:

\displaystyle \arctan{ \dfrac{\Sigma F_\text{Normal}}{\Sigma F_\text{Parallel}}} = \arctan{0.306491} = 17.0\textdegree.

In other words, the resultant force is 17.0° relative to the 8 N force.

How much heat is needed to change 1.25 kg of steak at 100°C to water at 100°C?
cricket20 [7]

The heat required to change 1.25 kg of steak is 2825 kJ /kg.

<u>Explanation</u>:

Given, mass m = 1.25 kg,     Temperature t = 100 degree celsius

To calculate the heat required,

                                 Q = m \times L

where m represents the mass in kg,

          L represents the heat of vaporization.

When a material in the liquid state is given energy, it changes its phase from liquid to vapor and the energy absorbed in this process is called heat of the vaporization. The heat of vaporization of the water is about 2260 kJ/kg.

                                  Q = 1.25 \times 2260

                                  Q = 2825 kJ /kg.

The __________ states that the firing rate of neurons in the auditory nerve matches the frequency of the sound wave.
borishaifa [10]

Correct answer choice is:

C. Volley principle (FREQUENCY MATCHING)

Explanation:

Volley theory declares that groups of neurons of the hearing rule counter to a noise by firing action potentials imperceptibly out of the stage with one another so that when connected, a higher pulse of sound can be encoded and transmitted to the brain to be examined.
